Create a test lead

Submits a test lead to a Meta lead form so you can check your lead retrieval without running ads.

Submits a test lead against the form (POST /{form-id}/test_leads) to exercise retrieval without waiting for real ad impressions. Meta allows one test lead per form at a time.

Create a lead form

Creates a lead form on a Facebook Page or LinkedIn Company Page to collect contact details from ads. The form content goes inside `platformSpecificData` for both platforms (the shape is selected by the accountId's platform). Meta: created on the connected Facebook Page (POST /{page-id}/leadgen_forms), where `accountId` may be the `metaads` ads connection (its Page comes from the Facebook account linked to the same profile), an Instagram account (the Page its ads run under: its own linked Page, else the Facebook or business-login Meta ads account on the same profile) or the Facebook account itself; the old top-level Meta fields (questions, thankYou*, contextCard, …) are DEPRECATED but still accepted while platformSpecificData is absent; mixing both shapes is a 400. LinkedIn: created on the ad account's Company Page. NOT idempotent: a retry creates a second form. Meta prefilled question types (EMAIL, PHONE, FULL_NAME, …) must omit label/key; CUSTOM questions require both. LinkedIn exposes only free-text and multiple-choice questions via API (prefilled-from-profile fields are Campaign Manager UI-only). Requires the Ads add-on.

Get a lead form

Shows a lead form in full, including its questions and thank-you page. Returns the full form, including the thank-you page, so a form can be diffed against what was created. Meta forms are scoped to the Page the accountId manages: a form on any other Page is a 404, never a read.
